There is an observation of a deepening segmentation of the high-circulation polish magazine market. The key players, that is companies with German capital: H. Bauer, Axel Springer Poland and Burda Media Poland inextricably associated with offers addressed to female consumers, systematically invested in periodicals patronized by men. The article attempts to both define the men's press and indicate features that are common for this diversified segment of the media. The author elaborates the key titles, outlining their contents, the issues addressed and the turnover from sales. The survey conducted clearly revealed that the leaders in the computer and motoring press in the years 1995-2010 were, in turns, periodicals of the two companies with German capital, namely H. Bauer and Axel Springer.

The author in her article deals with the problem of modern dilemmas and ethica problems appearing in Polish medicine, showing its speciﬁcity against the background of other European countries. Among them, the biggest controversies are aroused by issues like: conscience clause, euthanasia, abortion, “testament of life” and in vitro proceedings. The author presents the most important attitudes, their sources and determinants (cultural, social, legal, ﬁnancial, ideological, and religious). She also points out that essential inﬂuence on creating bioethical solutions belongs to doctors themselves as they have a signiﬁcant autonomy in the area of moral choices. The author also emphasizes that many solutions to problems in the scope of bioethics, formalized in legal records and ethical codes, and which are obligatory in Poland, do not constitute optimal solutions for the whole or at least majority of the society. Hence, there are still numerous oﬀers to regulate it alternatively. What is important, many of them constitute an attempt referring to modern current European legislation and even a direct attempt at transferring it to the underground. In the face of growing social and economic development of Poland and closer cooperation with European countries, their sanctioning seems to be only a matter of time today, and at same time a serious challenge requiring settling a kind of consensus between requirements of Polish society and the European Union.

The contribution deals with the conception of language history as a discipline of the diachronic linguistics and also with the contents of the synthetical works on language history, the latter of which are the major task of language history. In the light of more recent works on the development of the Czech language the author gives a short description of the Polish discussion about the contents of the language history and the synthetical language history works during the last 40 years. Some fundamental postulates formulated in this debate might be useful also for the next synthetical work on Czech language history.

The purpose of this article is to highlight the importance of domestic and foreign investments in the Polish market and analysis of their level in the context of the development of the Polish economy. Article verifies the hypothesis that the domestic investments and inflow of foreign direct investments have a positive impact on the development of the Polish economy. It seems that regardless of the views and studies, there are more benefi ts from the infl ow of foreign investments into Poland by their positive impact on the competitiveness of the Polish economy. However, any of their restrictions refl ect negatively on the economic growth of the country. Both domestic investments and foreign direct investments are the measure of the competitiveness of the economy. Apart from any threat, foreign capital is an opportunity for the development of the Polish economy. Poland trying to decrease disparities in relation to the developed countries should strive for improve the investment climate in order to not only attracts foreign capital, but also to create optimal conditions for the development of domestic investments and thereby stimulate economic growth.

Among valuable documents from the Rozmberk and Svamberk archives, which are deposited in the Historica collection of the regional archive in Trebon, several hundred manuscript newspapers and news items from the 16th century have been preserved. This extensive collection contains a unique report on the Turkish policy towards the Polish-Lithuanian state. It was written by an unknown Polish reporter on his return journey from Constantinople in 1576. He wanted to warn his patron, probably a senator, against the schemes of the Ottoman government about which he had heard from spies on the Sultan's court. He accompanied his information by numerous commentaries. Thus his report provides a peek into the 16th century Polish noblemen's lives and portraits the image of the Turks in their minds. Conversely, citations by the Viziers, their reporters and advisors provide information about the way the Rzeczpospolita was regarded by foreigners. The newspaper opens with plots concerning the Black Sea region, where the Turks aspired to prevent further Cossacks' interventions. However, the Grand Vizier's hunger to pillage or conquer the Polish-Lithuanian state seemed to be much more important. The reporter dealt with this topic in the second, more extensive part of his report. With great apprehension he informed on a counsel between the Grand Vizier and an unknown Frenchman, who willingly offered his intelligence on the Polish-Lithuanian state and instigated the Turks to attack it.

IN THE SHADOW OF THE OFFICIAL DISCOURSE: TOWARDS A REVISION OF THE HISTORY AND THEORY OF THE POLISH IDIOM OF CUBISM

This paper presents the lesser-known aspects of Cubism in Poland in the field of both aesthetic practice and theory, staying in the shadow of the mainstream documented in a tendentious way in the canonical art history. This way it contributes to the revision of the narrow view of the artistic processes and to the remapping of the traces of cultural exchange and transformation of aesthetic and ideological patterns in a horizontal perspective between the “European margins”. As an echo of these simplifications, the national and as a consequence also the international historiography of art mostly omits the Cubist tendencies, not only in the oeuvre of Polish artistic formations apart from Cracow, but also in the aesthetic practice of the representatives of groups, which later became well known as constructivist ones, such as Katarzyna Kobro, Władysław Strzemiński or Henryk Berlewi. On the other hand, it has been often forgotten, that in the local context, due to the relatively late adaptation of Cubism into artistic praxis, it is nearly not documented in the pure form. Instead of that, one can speak about the primarily non-antagonist coexistence of the two hybrids of the “new art” – the Cubo-Expressionist and the Futuro-Dadaist one.

Seeking the solutions which increases fiscal discipline, is the subject of particular in-terest in last years. It’s such more remarkable in terms of global financial crisis condi-tions, when possibilities of gaining revenues are significantly limited and, on the other hand, public debts of most countries are growing rapidly. Therefore all public spending, even indirect ones – including tax expenditures, should be monitored. It allows govern-ments to compare the real costs of various public programs, also makes possible appro-priate management of public finance and eventually, to seek more effective solutions. This paper presents the theory behind the concept of tax expenditures, as well as the different definitions of the notion employed by countries which produce tax expenditure reports. The authors discuss the need for a common definition of „benchmark tax” – a reference point for identification of tax expenditures and international comparisons. An-other purpose of the article is to present the way in which the idea of tax expenditures was implemented in the Polish report on tax preferences and to assess the budgetary ef-fects of tax expenditures.

The text is dedicated to the role of those people who had no formal entitlement to make decisions but, because of their professional achievements (mainly in science), enjoyed prestige in articulating the current or long-term policy of the party and the state authorities in the 1970s. The factors which increased the demand for the services of experts included the awareness of a scientific and technological revolution underway in the developed countries, resulting in support for consulting procedures, something which can be observed in the most important programmatic documents of the PUWP, as well as in the duplicated power structures of the party and the state. A yardstick which may be used to measure the impact of the expert bodies on the actions of state and party authorities is provided by the quantity and nature of the documents submitted to the deliberations of particular bodies of the party and the state. In the case of the state, the decision-making bodies were the Council of Ministers and the Presidium of the government; in the case of the party, it was the Politburo of the Central Committee of the PUWP. In general, it may be said that they were not the primary recipients of papers generated by the various types of experts. Such papers were put to use more at a lower level (e.g. that of particular ministries) or in the offices of their particular members (e.g. that of Edward Gierek). The most renowned case of experts being brought in to the decision making process by the centre of power was the appointment, in 1971, of an economic advisor to the 1st Secretary of the Central Committee of the PUPW, in the person of Mr. Zdzislaw Rurarz (formally, he was given a full-time position as an inspector at the CC); he was later to be replaced by Professor Pawel Bozyk. In May 1997, an entire team of scientific advisors to the 1st Secretary was appointed, chaired by Professor Bozyk. It may be said that the influence of the advisors to the 1st Secretary was scant; this resulted, to a large degree, from the concentration of the most of the decision-making power, as far as the economy was concerned, in the hands of Prime Minister, Piotr Jaroszewicz, and the deputy Prime Ministers who reported to him i.e., Mieczyslaw Jagielski and (in the years when the team of advisors was active), Tadeusz Pyka and Tadeusz Wrzaszczyk. The fact that the management of the economy was dominated by the government implied that the greatest influence was held by specialists from within its own structures, namely the lower rank clerks and the directors of the industrial groups and enterprises who acted en masse and drafted documents to meet the needs of their supervisors. Paradoxically, the activity of the team of advisors proved most significant for the further career of some of its members in the state and party structures.

According to some estimations, the number of natural disasters increases in the world. Their occurrence often causes damages in the infrastructure and agriculture, death and suffering of many people. The public and private goods are destroyed. In the face of these worrying facts, counteracting for results of natural disasters is the key issue. The aim of the article is to present this kind of phenomena in Poland and actions connected with preventing their negative consequences.

The aim of the paper is to keep track of the selected elements of the Polish social reality in the last twenty years that may account for the way in which Poland has dealt with its major civilisation challenge. To achieve this, the authors start with an analysis of the Poles’ attitudes towards transformation. Next, they go on to outlining the major categories of the Polish society as a result of the whole process (economic situation, lifestyle and education were some of the variables included at this point). The authors pay some attention to two extremes that have been visible in Polish cities: gated communities and ghettos of poverty. Yet, it is not only within the cities that the differences emerge; for the past twenty years Poland has had to face its old and new regional divisions, now visible also through the prism of the EU dimension of the centre–periphery dichotomy. To sum up, the authors sketch a general picture of the winners and losers of the Polish transformation.

Over the centuries, folk culture in Poland has undergone many changes due to natural civilization processes – from the culture catering for basic needs of rural society, to commercial culture catering mainly for tourists’ needs. The cultural products created on the basis of its resources, being more or less authentic, begin to determine the attractiveness of many regions in Poland. The article attempts to establish the potential and development possibilities of cultural tourism in rural areas of Poland, considering the regional differences. Furthermore, the author is reviewing terms connected with the use of folk culture resources, and she also draws attention to process of creating cultural products and its influence on the folk culture commercialization.

The problem of tradition and modernity is one of the key themes of modern Polish history. It was caused by the strong and persistent dominance of political culture, which established itself on the basis of the norms of the noble society. In this form and for a long time it loomed over other opportunities for development as a possible inspiration and binding framework. A high frequency of political crises and a weak modernising balance contributed to the fact that these models remained functional well into the 20th century. There bearers were the political and cultural elite (inteligencja), which formed as informal structures, however, they operated in formal institutional frameworks. Owing to their origins, they prevented, to a certain degree, the process of modernisation, which infringed on their historical identity. Therefore, other social groups benefited from this process, which made it difficult for these groups to enter politics without direct ties to the elite or mental dependence on their models. Politics thus partially paradoxically contradicted modernisation because they were two wholes with different internal constructs.

New data obtained from the central part of the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland cast an interesting light on the issues of the origin of chocolate flint and the ways it was used by prehistoric communities inhabiting the region. Earlier interpretations indicated that the chocolate flint found at prehistoric sites in the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland was imported from the outcrops in the north-eastern part of the Holy Cross Mountains. Identifying the sites of siliceous rocks outcrops, extraction and distribution are extremely important at not only the local but also trans-regional level.

The study presents an analysis of a relief bust from the manor house Jabłonna near Warsaw with the self-portrait of the famous Florentine artist Baccio Bandinelli. Based on a thorough research of the work of art the author dates its origin back to the years 1555 - 1559, integrating it with some self-portraits of the artist from Florence and Strasbourg. He also points to formal features of the relief, which are also characteristic for Bandinelli’s marble slabs for the chancel in Florentine Santa Maria del Fiore (today Museo dell‘ Opera del Duomo). A special issue, which the author raises, are the circumstances that led this work to Poland. The existing sources offer two hypotheses.

Article 6 of the Treaty on the European Union, in the version established by the Lisbon Treaty, gives a binding force to the Charter of Fundamental Rights, including it in the primary law and making it equal with it. Thus, the instrument was not directly included in the Founding Treaties, as provided for by the Constitutional Treaty. The Protocol on the Application of the Charter of Fundamental Rights to the United Kingdom and the Republic of Poland is an inseparable part of EU primary law. The aim of the Protocol is to limit the pos-sibility for the ECJ to control the application of the Charter in cases in which laws provided for in the Charter have been confirmed by the Polish legal system. It does not seem apt to say that Poland’s withdrawal from the Polish-British Protocol would only be possible through a new protocol, ratified by all Member States. EU law, as a subsystem of public international law, is essentially deformalised and leaves a relative freedom of action to states. There are no obstacles to applying these non-formal procedures (such as withdrawing the special reservation by Poland) to the Polish-British protocol
